Switches
There are three slide switches and one pushbutton switch on the PCI-7041.
Figure 1-3 shows their location. The switches are labeled on the opposite
side of the board. They are not accessible from outside the computer, so you
must remove the computer cover to use them.

The Reset pushbutton resets and reboots the board. To use the button, push
it for at least two seconds and then release it. If you connect the accessory
board to the PCI-7041, you can use the
POWER
LED to know how long
to push the button. Hold in the button until the
POWER
LED goes out, then
release the button. You also can reset the board from software on the host
computer. Use whichever method is more convenient to reset the PCI-7041.
Switch S1 is the No App switch. LabVIEW RT provides a way to load a
startup application on the CompactFlash, which begins execution as soon
as the board powers on and boots. The No App switch disables this startup
